Isolation

from The Tyrant by Defy The Leader

/

lyrics

I, I think I’ll hide in isolation. So I don’t have to see this world.
Bound and broken down on its knees, with a noose hanging round its neck

It’s pulling tighter and I can’t see an escape
Suffocating at the hand of our mistakes.

Are we a parasite?
Do we take till there’s nothing left
Spreading all our decay
Till it strikes at the heart

Crushing flesh from these empty bones
We take and take till there’s nothing left
What will it take to realize
We’re just destroying ourselves

We’ll take it all just to watch it burn
We’ll burn it all to the fucking ground
And when it’s gone will we finally realize
We’re fucked

We spend our lives
Searching the darkness
For a hope we’ll never find

We’ll never find.

So now there’s nothing left, we turn on ourselves.
Betray ourselves
Just full of emptiness we crumble and fall,
We slip away
From our humanity, we’re hunting like dogs,
Like animals
And now we wonder where the fuck we went wrong

We spend our lives
Searching the darkness
For a hope we’ll never find

I know we’ll never find
A cure for
The human condition
